It is beautiful!
Sex is natural and not something that’s aesthetically inferior to other things
I think I have to tell my favorite bird story.
I used to have a glorious organic garden, and I would work in it almost every day. One day, as I was turning a bed for the next crop, a Robin sat on the edge of another bed watching me. When I stepped back to take a break, he hopped over to where I’d been working, and pulled up a big worm.
I went back to work, and he continued to watch me. Occasionally I’d toss him a worm. After that, he’d show up whenever I’d work, for a free meal.
One day, I got started, and my buddy showed up. He called quietly, in that little warbling chortle that they do, and a female robin hopped out from behind the neighbor’s fence. She spotted me, and became immediately agitated, but he chortled lightly, and she settled down, eyeing me warily.
I got to work, and tossed him a worm, which startled her. He gulped it down as she watched. Then I tossed a worm to her, startling her again, but less. She carefully approached the worm and ate. After that she settled down, and enjoyed her dinner
My Robin friend had gone out and got himself a date, and brought her to his favorite restaurant, where he’s friends with the head chef. What a BALLER move!
That is awesome, and it sounds like something I would totally do.
…if I didn’t already have enough pets of my own that scare birds out of the yard, lol. Fortunately I have pets that will eat worms. I have been thinking of building a nice bird feeder just outside the fence though.
Oh my goodness, I love this! Thank you so much for sharing! :) Sounds like you had a kickass garden; you must be very talented and hard-working. I’m jealous!
Just yesterday a friend mentioned that when he was a kid, there was a robin that would always show up while he was working in his garden, and it would sit on his shoe the whole time and pick out worms. It’s so cool to read this right afterwards! Such neat little birdies.
That garden was a masterpiece, I miss it. I eventually started a business, and some hobbies, like sports and gardening, had to step aside to carve out time for the business.
Hot take: too many songs are about Love, and it gets boring. Like seriously, 95%
That’s why we have Power Metal et al.
Metal in general. Not too many lovesongs there.
And the exceptions sound like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-t7z-UXllBM
I realised that this must’ve been one of the reasons I enjoyed metal when younger.
And Punk Rock
I rarely listen to music and when I do it’s because someone else turned it on. But my kid absolutely loves music, so we take turns on when she can decide if the radio is on in the car.
The last time I was just thinking, "why on earth is 95% of these songs about wanting a woman/man, romantically or sexually?
Yeah it took me literal years to notice. You’re just so used to it.
Yet now it feels kinda shallow.Was it all the same genre? Genres have a tendency to be about the same thing. Rap is about sex, strippers, guns and drugs. Punk rock is usually about break ups and depression. Country is trucks, beer, nostalgia. Pop is usually about sex and love…
Most Punk Rock in my experience is either A. Politics, B. The Human Condition, or C. Not Following The Herd.
I prefer to impress the ladies by building a really nice treehouse.
I support the type of bird courtship where i ruffle the feathers on my body so y become a black flat screen shaped bird and start prancing in front of my potential mate
So, yeah. Believe it or not, it’s related even in primates.
TFW you’re a British lesbian songwriter
Peak t-rex behaviour!
(That’s my headcanon.)
That’s how we got “Layla”…but it didn’t work.
